Report: Cable hit two women (updated)

Raiders coach Tom Cable stands accused of physical violence by his first wife and an ex-girlfriend, they women told ESPN’s Outside the Lines (the story aired this morning).

Cable released his own statement, admitting he did slap his wife 20 years ago but saying he did not assault his ex-girlfriend in January.

“More than 20 years ago, during my first marriage, I became aware that my wife Sandy had committed adultery,” Cable said. “I became very angry and slapped her with an open hand. What I did was wrong and I have regretted and felt sorrow about that moment ever since,” Cable said in his statement. … The incident involving Ms. Lutz, in which she came to my home uninvited, was fully investigated by the Alameda Police Department and I cooperated fully with that investigation. I never battered her in any way. The police concluded, correctly, that I had done nothing wrong and that was the end of the matter.”

Sandy Cable responded to her ex-husband’s own allegation with an ESPN reporter, saying, “He constantly made accusations throughout the relationship. There was never any infidelity on my part. And he did not slap me, he punched me.”

** Wide receiver Chaz Schilens is inactive, which means he will miss at least 12 weeks before potentially returning from foot surgery.

That means Javon Walker is on the active list (not inactive, nice catch guys) for the fourth time this season, still searching for his first catch.

** Left guard Robert Gallery is also inactive, along with unhealthy scratches Nick Miller, Cornell Green, Darren McFadden and Ricky Brown. Langston Walker is also inactive and Charlie Frye is the No. 3 quarterback.
